Age of Generating Units of California's Power Plants

This dataset contains charts which represent the mix of fuel types and age, by decade of initial operation, of all generating units within California-based power plants. The charts indicate the total capacity based on nameplate capacity ratings of each generating unit as well as the total electricity generated by these same units.
